Would these fit a 03 dtr ?

Calum122 · Guru

Should fit. Not much difference between that and the DTR. Not that I can think of. Rad is in the same place and the engine is in the same position.

Personally I'd buy somewhere else. £40 seems a lot. Should be able to get just radiator pipe from eBay for less.

Calum122 · Guru

I dunno actually. Just read below. Seeing as you won't have to cut it down to size. Or buy clips for it. It seems pretty good.

Also Samco's quite well know. No, the more I look at it the more I like it. The more I want it! Haha!

This one has more colour choices...I think.

Haha those posts crack me up... Ye think I'm gunna go for them if I don't spend too much money at the dirtbike show spoiling my other yam !! Haha

Calum122 · Guru

Lol.

Jumped too quickly. I think I'll probably grab some off them to be fair. Saves me chopping it all up.

Those premium colours sound pretty epic.. I wonder what the difference is between red and viper red....

Calum122 · Guru

It's a darker red. Just type it in I. Google

BigPhil · DTR Senior Member

Just looked at all the colours, going to go for red when I buy them, prefer the normal red to viper red !

Calum122 · Guru

That's what I thought.

Got a length of sfs red silicone hose in the end for £20 an cut it down n it fit perfectly. Save £20 an will be able to do one of the yz hoses too!

Calum122 · Guru

Ah right. I reckon I'll go with the Samco hoses. Just cause they have that label on the top and bottom.

My only problem is I need to cut it in two for the temperature sensor. Not the end of the world though.

BigPhil · DTR Senior Member

sfs ones have it all the way along so looks pretty cool, ah right fair enough

callum you can always put the temperature senser into the head replacing the standard one, readings may be slightly hotter but it will work just the same

Calum122 · Guru

For the vapor stealth?

eG x LoGiKzZ · Guru

yes, fitted it there on my tdr with no problems at all, fits just the same as the standard one

eG x LoGiKzZ · Guru

no risk of the plastic housing melting then, unless you have the shiny metal one! :)

Reef · Guru

Yeah i fitted my temp sender to the cylinder head where you would find the stock for my vapor, to do it though you need to buy the different type of sender, take down the size of the original pne and get hold of them if your interested and there sort you out with the correct one :)

Calum122 · Guru

Yeah may have to look into that.
